Do you guys get to see who hits you with + or - reputation, etc?

Indeed we do... I think.

So giving -rep to a staff member is basically pointless because they could just -rep me back out of spite whether I had a good reason or not.

Yes, it is true. But if a Staff Member gives -rep out of spite, then he/she doesn't desreve the position or something. But people shouldn't fear giving -rep to staff member(s) as long as a valid reason is given.

I think the staff should just be void of the reputation system as they were the doubloon system (they could only give doubloons, not receive any).

Or, I think their ability to see who gives them reputation should be taken away. That way, people need not fear being honest through the act of giving/taking reputation from a staff member.

Or, everyone should have the ability to see who gives/takes reputation to/from them. That way, these anonymous acts of harassment are no longer a problem. And, people won't -rep others simply out of spite and if they do, they'll face retaliation unless they offer a legitimate reason.

Maybe the rep system should stop existing?

Just a thought.

I personally believe that the reputation system holds much potential. Just needs a little (some would say a lot) tweaking.

I think the reputation system here is too much for a lot of people here to handle. Especially a reputation system without accountability (yes, I'm agreeing with GameMaster here). Besides, we all know who has a good reputation here and who doesn't. I don't need to look at the number of little green rectangles under TheGame's name to know what kind of post to expect from him.

But hey, if people are going to get their jollies from pips, who am I to stop them? People getting pips for giving jollies is kind of silly, but young people will be young people.
